How the BBC Say Sorry

According to the BBC Complaints web site they should have done better on the One Show in their piece of biased reporting.

Complaint

We received complaints that an item about politics and class in The One Show on 14 January was biased against the Conservative Party.

The BBC's response

A number of comments have been made about the report on class on The One Show on 14 January. It is one of several features that The One Show will air in the run up to the election, covering political parties and politicians. We accept that the piece was not as good as it should have been. The One Show production team are aware of their responsibilities to ensure fairness in their output.

They cannot quite bring themselves to admit that it was just plain wrong. By saying "We accept that the piece was not as good as it should have been," it demonstrates all that is wrong with a culture that emanates from by the overpaid and overpromoted DG

Agree 100%. I watched it and just left my shocked at the anti-Conservative bias. It was quite unbelievable. What about BBC rules regarding political impartiality. I have made an official complaint to the BBC, lets see if I get a response.
